Award Information
Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2021, $194,328)
The Oregon State Police (OSP) will use FY21 NCHIP funds to purchase seven Livescan devices for partner law enforcement agencies that have reached end-of-life or to implement Livescan equipment for the first time, in order to replace ink and paper used by agencies to record and report their arrest data to the state repository. OSP will also use funds to purchase two additional devices for Oregon State Police. The goal of the Livescan purchase project is two-fold. First, to support the local agency obligation of fingerprint and arrest photo submissions to the state repository through assistance in obtaining equipment to sustain their operations. And secondly, ensure Oregon repository data exchange programs with state and federal partners are continued which in turn will benefit public safety statewide and nationally.
OSP, CJSD is requesting the addition of two (2) Western Identification Network (WIN) fingerprint processing Automated Biometric Identification Systems (ABIS) terminals to replace terminals that are nearing their end-of-life cycle. These includes software licensing, installation, integration, and testing. It is anticipated the addition of these terminal units will increase the fingerprint processing capacity by 20 percent. These terminals will be utilized to process both criminal and regulatory ten-print submissions, resulting in OSP’s ability to quickly provide fingerprint identification for individuals in custody or applying for a concealed handgun license and other Oregon licensing.
